The Kentucky Department of Agriculture is a state government agency within Kentucky's government administration. It focuses on consumer protection and agricultural services that affect many Kentuckians on a daily basis, and it provides ongoing support to the state's farming communities year-round. Based in Frankfort, Kentucky, the department has a workforce in the low hundreds. Its work targets farmers, farm families, school districts, and the broader public by coordinating programs and partnerships that promote safe, locally sourced agricultural products and related services. In 2026, the department announced a partnership with the Kentucky Department of Education to expand farm-to-school programs, addressing cost, sourcing, and procurement to help districts buy local products more easily.
